WASHINGTON, Oct. 24 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday reversed his decision to deploy the National Guard to San Francisco.
“The federal government was preparing for a rapid rollout in San Francisco, California, on Saturday, but my friends who live in the area called last night and asked us not to proceed with that rollout because Mayor Daniel Lurie has made significant progress,” the White House chief wrote on Truth Social.
"I spoke with Mayor Lurie last night, and he very politely asked me to give him a chance to see if he could make a difference. Therefore, we will not be deploying troops to San Francisco on Saturday," he noted.
D. Lourie reported on the social media platform X that he had spoken with D. Trump by phone and informed him that the situation in San Francisco was improving. He welcomed continued cooperation with the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives to curb drug trafficking, but emphasized that the presence of the military and militarized immigration enforcement in the city would hinder the restoration of order.
California Democratic leaders, including Governor Gavin Newsom and David Lourie, have been preparing for weeks for Donald Trump to send federal troops to San Francisco.
In June, the deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles in response to protests sparked by immigration raids sparked a backlash.
In August, the Trump administration deployed the National Guard to Washington, D.C., to combat crime and threatened to send troops to other Democratic-controlled cities. In late September, Trump announced he was sending troops to Portland, calling the city "war-torn," but the deployment was temporarily blocked by a federal judge.
